Cool Swag

Mondo Tees - Director's/Metal Shirts

Today we are going to look at a store that is actually located inside the Alamo Drafthouse in Austin, Mondo Tees, specifically their "director's series" shirts. Pictured inside this text is obviously a Martin Scorsese shirt, but done in the Scorpions font. These things are awesome. I saw Eli Roth wearing the Bergman/Maiden shirt in a video interview one time and had to figure out where he got it. They also have: Herzog/Danzig, Ozu/Ozzy, Fassbinder/Metallica, Von Trier/Van Halen, De Palma/Def Leppard, and Bela Tarr/Black Flag. A marriage of metal and great film? I'm sold. They run $20 a piece. And I do plan on buying one or two.

They also have a good selection of other t-shirts as well, including an entire Daniel Johnston section and a super cool Badass Cinema section. Check them out, there is lots of good stuff.
